Overview
The Bushnell 12x50 Engage DX Binoculars are uniquely optimized for viewing across vast flat terrain where powerful magnification and a wide field of view truly shine—making them ideal for hunting and birding in the predawn and late dusk when birds and game are most active. The powerful 12x magnification enables detailed observation of distant subjects, while the large 50mm objective lenses provide the light-gathering capacity required to keep views crisp and bright when viewing targets at extreme distances or in challenging light conditions such as at dawn and dusk. Anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics with dielectric-coated and phase-corrected BAK4 prisms achieve up to 92% light transmission for bright, sharp, high-contrast views with accurate colour fidelity and crisp resolution. The wide 64° apparent angle of view presents an immersive panoramic experience with a spacious 280-foot field of view while minimising distracting hand shake common with high-power optics. Built with a lightweight magnesium chassis, nitrogen-filled IPX7 waterproof construction, and rubber armour with textured palm pads, these binoculars are designed to withstand the harshest elements.
Key Features:
- 12x Magnification with 50mm Objectives – The powerful 12x magnification enables detailed observations of distant subjects, while the large 50mm objective lenses provide the light-gathering capacity required to keep views crisp and bright when viewing targets at extreme distances or in challenging light conditions such as at dawn and dusk.
- Dielectric Coated Prisms with 92% Light Throughput – Dielectric prism coatings boost light throughput to 92% for minimal loss and diffraction, while PC-3 phase-correcting prism coatings eliminate internal interference to improve colour and contrast. This advanced prism system delivers exceptional brightness and clarity.
- Anti-Reflection Fully Multi-Coated Optics – Anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics improve light transmission, contrast, and colour fidelity. These coatings work together with the prism system to maximise light transmission through the entire light path.
- EXO Barrier Protective Lens Coating – Proprietary EXO exterior lens coatings resist external fogging, scratches, and abrasions while allowing oil, dirt, and sap to be cleaned off without leaving smudges or residue. This innovative coating keeps your lenses clear in all conditions.
- Wide 64° Apparent Angle of View – The expansive 64° apparent angle of view presents an immersive and panoramic observational experience with reduced appearance of the distracting hand-shake common when holding high-power optics. The 280-foot field of view at 1000 yards allows effective scanning of vast areas.
- Lightweight Magnesium Alloy Chassis – The lightweight magnesium alloy chassis provides an ergonomic and balanced feel in the hand that offers the strength and stability required of workhorse binoculars. The ergonomic body design positions the hand over the center of balance for reduced strain and fatigue.
- IPX7 Waterproof and Fogproof Construction – Nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to an IPX7 rating, these binoculars are waterproof and capable of temporary submersion in puddles or shallow streams. This ensures reliable performance in rain, snow, and humid conditions without internal fogging.
- 15mm Eye Relief with 4.1mm Exit Pupil – The comfortable 15mm eye relief reduces eyestrain during long glassing sessions, especially for eyeglass wearers. The 4.1mm exit pupil covers pupils as they open and dilate in low light to keep the whole scene in view without vignetting.
